DOVER — A HomeGoods store is slated to open its doors in Dover on Sept. 23 at 1380 N. DuPont Highway, according to the discount home furnishing chain. Formerly an H. H. Gregg — an appliance retailer — the retail space in the shopping center across the road from Dover Mall has undergone fairly significant facade renovations over the last two months.

The new 27,286 square-foot store will be the 26th HomeGoods in the Philadelphia market.

HomeGoods operates more than 650 stores across the country and is a division of The TJX Companies, Inc.

“Our amazing values, brand names, and vast assortment make HomeGoods an exciting destination for shoppers,” John Ricciuti, President of HomeGoods, said in a statement.

“With a large variety of special merchandise from around the world, customers will always find something thrilling in our treasure hunt environment at great values. We are happy to provide Dover with a local HomeGoods.”

HomeGoods expects to fill approximately 65 full- and part-time positions at the location.

According to Glassdoor — an anonymous employer review platform — HomeGoods stores pay sales associates around $9 per hour, assistant managers about $50,000 per year and store managers about $72,000 per year.
